In the business of commercial and industrial heating, Applied Air stands out as an expert in gas heating technology

Since 1975, Applied Air has been providing cost-effective, reliable hating solutions. Our flexible, "modular" IF Indirect Fired heating systems add warm, fresh and clean air to your work environment at the highest practical efficiency of 80%.

Improves Comfort Anywhere Replaces Indoor Air
IF units are available for indoors (IF), outdoors (IFW), or roof curb mounting (IFR). You can even add DX or chilled water cooling coils for a total comfort solution. The IF line replaces indoor air that can become chemical laden in a painting or processing operations, but without adding dust.
Replaces Lost Heat Heats Small or Large Buildings
Large volumes of exhaust air from kitchen hoods or industrial processes take away lots of heat from the space. IF uits replace the heat efficiently. With airflows from 2,500 to 94,000 CFM and heat outputs from 350,000 to 6,000,000 BTUH, you can heat any size building.
Heats Without Condensation
The IF product line operates at efficiencies of 80% in order to avoid the highly corrosive effects of condensation inside the heat exchanger tubes. Efficiencies over 80% can cause serious problems for normal heat exchanger materials.

How Indirect Fired Heating Works
Indirect Fired gas heating works by transferring heat from a gas flame to a steel chamber and then to the supply airstream. Each transfer of heat results in a loss of efficiency, and some of the original gas flame heat is lost. The amount of loss can be minimized by:
Using a powered burner to spread the flame deep down the steel chamber.
Pulling the flame heated air evenly through all of the steel tubes by using an "induced" draft fan.
Exposing the supply air to as much tubing as possible by using multiple "passes".
